    I have a 75 CJ5 that the body is basically junk. Locally there is a 71 tub I can see tomorrow. Not doing a resto, just want good metal, price and location and decent body are the driving factors. Will the 71 tub fit with a few mods?

    yup put the two side by side and make the 71 look like the 75 .firewall mods will be needed, swinging pedals installed,and mounting locations may need adjusting, shouldn't be too hard to do
